Questions all writers hate!
Ever wondered what it might be like to be a writer, here is what you can expect:
Questions such as this:
“When are you going to get a proper job?.”
Answer: “Go to hell – I never liked you anyway.”
“Are you pregnant or something, unable to do a normal job?”
Answer: “Yes… well no… well actually – conceiving them is far more fun than pushing them out of my nether regions.”
“Are you famous?”
Answer: Laugh coquettishly and reply, “Would I be talking to you if I were?”
“What do you write about?”
Answer: “um….”
Well any fellow writers out there can add to this list, I am absolutely positive that you might have a few of your own!
Q “Who’s your publisher?”
A “Me! No I’m not embarrassed. And it’s not full of typos. Oh dear, did something go down the wrong way?”
Q “What’s your latest book about?”
A “Er, it’s not really your sort of thing.”
- “That’s OK, I’m interested”
- “No you’re not. Tell me about YOU.”
-”Don’t be shy. Really, I’m interested.”
- “OK. It’s about a woman who keeps a diary she made from her twin brother’s skin. After she killed him.”
- “Bleeeuuchhh!” *edges uneasily away*
Good ones Dan !
